Celebrity Jersey Cards #311 Jimmy Buffett & David Bowie

This is a regular series in which I create virtual trading cards for jersey-clad celebrities.

Born in Pascagoula, Mississippi, Jimmy Buffett rose to fame in Margaritaville.  Parrotheads flock to this music legend.  The Minnesota Wild gifted him with this unique jersey, which allowed me to create a very colorful Celebrity Jersey Card.  I'm not sure if the Wild ever officially wore this jersey, but since it is team created, it is good enough for me.
This is an edited version of my original post.  Thanks to reader Ned for identifying the man pictured as Mick Ronson, after I had him listed as rock legend David Bowie.  The late Ronson was a musician who played with David Bowie as one of the Spiders from Mars, among his musical accomplishments.  I blame my excitement over finding a celeb wearing a California Golden Seals jersey for this mistake.  I also thank Ned for reading and for correcting my error.
